Swayne, on behalf of the committee said: "The Impossibility of the company to control nature is odvIous and we feould not press that point because ft would have only resulted in breaking off negotiations In no other Hty Is the quality and quantity of the gas to be furnished, provided specifically in a franchise. "The local contract provides that ithe gas shall not be adulterated but shall be the natural product. This tlause covers the point of quality as far as possible. By unadulterated, Ve mean the gas as It comes from the wells. I believe we shall be assured of a good quality of gas by this section in the franchise. "In order to guarantee that the (pressure will be high enough, the company Is laying a double main from its West Virginia fields to Dayton. There is one pumping station "Where the mains cross the Ohio river from West Virginia. About sixty miles west at Sugar Grove, Ohio, ithere is another pumping station and ,'one is being constructed at Dayton. tThls will Insure the necessary quantity of gas, we believe." ..

(Advertisement) STACK BUILDERS WORKING HERE ARE SUPERSTITIOUS LOT (Continued from Page One.) stack while a gentle breeze was blowing below, he probably would encounter a wind pressure which to him would seem almost equal to a gale. He . stated that the rocking of the stack at such times often made new workmen 111. A Stack Must Weave. "If a stack don't weave when we have built the first hundred feet, there lkis something wrong, and we would not j work on it," said one of the men. "If i a stack does not weave continually 'from side to side, it is a sure sign that the base isn't plumb, and if we built ;any more on it, the entire stack will collapse. This does not happen once ' In a number of years, as the work has become a science, and we know just what we are doing when we build a costly structure like this." The light plant stack will be 175 feet in height and is to be constructed entirely of light buff hollow bricks. ; It will be the highest stack in the city jor in this part of the state. The base is twenty-two feet wide while the chimney will be ten feet wide across ' the top. The base is constructed of concrete "bound with iron and steel rods, which , form a part of the concrete work. In the concrete base, the flue openings ' are built. A Building Peculiarity. V A peculiarity in the chimney is the fact that the tapering towards the top is not accomplished by sloping the bricks towards the center of the stack. The bricks are set exactly perpendicular or the chimney is noi considered safe. By setting alternate rows of brick a fraction of an inch closer to the center, the same result is attained. As the point of construction of the stack becomes too high for the men to work from the ground, scaffolding is constructed inside the chimney. The men work entirely from the inside and declare that it is as safe there as working inside a building. They say that accidents have been minimized of late and that fatalities are usually the results of foolhardiness. A peculiar feature of the work is the fact that the men must wear goggles when they are working more than a hundred feet from the ground as the draft sweeps up the inside of the stack and brings with it fine dust and lime from below, which gets into their eyes. A hoist through the center of the stack is now being made ready to carry material to the men when the work goes higher. When the stack is completed, it is customary to take the officials up to the top of the chimney in the hoist as a 175 foot climb on the Iron steps inside the stack is too tiresome. WANTS NO GUARDIAN The trial of Lucretia Gibson, to have her guardian dismissed, will be heard before a jury Wednesday. Eighteen witnesses were summoned to testify in case. Mrs. Gibson was adjudged insane by a commission and is now in condition to care for her own property, she alleges, -.- -

ROUGE, POWDER AND BURLESQUE OF SEX (Continued From Page Ten.) tuated by mere mercenary motives? It is well to ponder over these questions. Any parent cherishing the future of his daughter should bear in mind this fact: There is a moral value in modesty as well as real charm. It is immeasurably immodest to make one's self conspicuous by the face-smearing process. But "A little powder now and then is relished by the best of them" It is in ts utility that it should be relished. 'It banishes a gloss that is unattractive. But this coating of one's complexion so that nature's charms are concealed is silly and marring. It is not modest. It is a girl's duty to herself and to society to keep herself as pleasing in appearance as possible. There are many girls who paint and mean no wrong. They are good girls. They see no harm in it and then it is stylish, you know; and mother and father thoughtless mother and father do not discourage her. I want to tell the girls this: It may not be sin, but it may be the occasion for sin . Don't play with fire. I want to tell the parents this: There would be no social evil, so-called, if feminine modesty were more carefully treasured. A final word to girls and parents. Young women of today don't seem to differentiate between conspicuousness and attractiveness. The girl whose natural complexion is disguised by a coating of powder or paint and who is attired in one of these disgracefully suggestive gowns of today, may be conspicuous. She can never be attractive.

Paint is one of the most usual of the unavoidable stains which afflict the skirt worn out of doors. "Fresh paint" signs are all very well if they are seen !in time, but they have an inconvenient way of appearing boldly before the eyes after damage has been done. The sooner a paint stain Is removed the easier the task of removal will be. jSpread a little dry laundry or cornstarch around the spot to . keep the 'paint when moistened from spreading. Then wet the stain with turpentine. After a few minutes moisten again. Scrape the paint up with a dull knife or a spoon handle and wet again with turpentine. When there is no trace left of the paint rob the spot dry with a clean cloth and brush off the starch. I Washington Star. Traveling Sand Hills. On the coast of Pomerania there are ilarge tracts of sand heaped up by the wind, hundreds of yards In breadth land from 00 to 120 feet high, and these hills, propelled by the wind, imove steadily in an easterly direction. iThe speed at which these great hills 'travel is from thirty-nine to fifty-six feet a year. Pine woods, which sometimes come in their line of march, cannot stop them and are completely destroyed. The branches are rotted off by the sand, and nothing Is left of the tree but the bare stems, which after a few years wither and die.

SEVERE ELECTRICAL STORM SWEPT OVER WAYNE LAST NIGHT

Fireman Herbert Ray Shocked and Fell Of fa Ladder. (Continued from Page One) valuable farm implements were de stroyed and five loads of new hay 1 burned. The damage elsewhere in j this vicinity was slight. NEW PARIS FORTUNATE. NEW PARIS, O.. July 15 All this part of Preble county was visited by a severe rain, wind and electrical storm last night, but the loss to property was slight. A few trees were blown down but crops escaped without much damage. DAMAGE WAS SLIGHT. (Palladium Special) CAMBRIDGE CITY, Ind., July 15. The severest electrical storm of the summer visited this town about 11 o'clock last night, but no serious damage has been reported. Very little corn was blown over by the heavy rain and the high wind. NO DAMAGE DONE. (Palladium Sppcial) CENTER VILLE, Ind., July 15. The hardest rain since early in the spring fell here about 11 o'clock last night. The electrical storm which accompanied the rainfall did no damage. Their First Indian Corn. Before the settlers landed at Plymouth they sent out a number of parties to explore the country. One of these parties consisted of sixteen men, under Captain Miles Standish. On their route they discovered several small hillocks, which they conjectured to be the graves ef the Indians; but, proceeding still farther, they discovered many more, and on closer examination each hillock was found to contain a quantity of Indian corn. It was burled in the ear and excited no small degree of their curiosity. By a few of the company it was thought a valuable discovery; others who had tasted the corn in its raw state thought it indifferent food and of but little value. To Help Nature Shed a Bad Complexion (From the Family Physician.) Beauty devotees are enthusiastic over the beautifying qualities of mercolized wax. Perhaps nothing discovered within recent years accomplishes so much, so quickly, without harm, without detaining one indoors, and at such small expense. The principal reason for its wonderful merit is that it works in harmony with physiological laws. Instead of hiding, or "curing" complexion defects, it removes them. The wax actually takes off the aged, faded, sallow, freckled or blotchy cuticle, gently, gradually, causing no inconvenience. It is Nature's way of renewing complexions. When the natural process is retarded because of deficient circulation or nerve tone, mercolized wax comes to the rescue and hastens the skin shedding. The new complexion which appears is a natural one, youthful, healthy, exquisitely beautiful. If you've never tried mercolized wax, get an ounce of it at the drug store, use at night like cold cream, washing it off in the morning. Another natural beautifying treatment for wrinkled skin is to bathe the face in a lotion made by dissolving an ounce of saxolite in a half pint witch hazel. This is remarkably and instantaneously effective. t Advertisement)

MINORS CANT HAVE PRIVILEGES WHICH ARE PROHIBITED BY LA V

Superintendent of Police Declares Minors Cannot Operate Pool Rooms Women Under 21 Can't Drink. Minors cannot be granted privileges which the law prohibits, according to Chief of Police Gormon, who is besieged with parents who want their children be allowed to partake in amusements contrary to law. The attention of the chief was called to a case last week of a father who had purchased a pool room at Fourth and North D for his minor son. The man thought that since he gave his son permission to operate the pool room, the minor had a right to do so, although it is contrary to law for a minor to be allowed to loiter in a pool billiard or other gaming room. Mr. Gormon notified the man that his son could not do this. Another case came up last week when Patrolman Roy E. Wenger discovered a man bringing a glass of beer to his wife rfom Cooper's saloon on Main street. Patrolman Wenger knew that the woman was not of age although since her husband was bringing her the liquor, he was undecided as to whether the law on giving liquor to minors held in this case. No arrests were made although the patrolman warned the man against giving the liquor to his wife. Chief of .7? ' t 1V ITS!

Police Gormon was told of the matter and immediately instructed the patrolmen that it Is contrary to law to give liquor to any minor. "This is just a sample case of the trouble we have with minors," said Mr. Gormon. Many parents want their children to do certain things contrary to law. They come to the police in a few cases and ask us. Others do not take the trouble to consult the police but go ahead and do as they please. "Some fathers want their sons to carry pistols for some reason. The fathers come to me and ask me to see that the boys are not arrested. Then 1 tell them that they will be arrested and they become angry. Others say that they are not opposed to their sons smoking clgarets and claim that for that reason, they should not be arrested. These things are contrary to law and we will enforce the laws."
